Abbeycast: The Harvest is rich - A podcast for First Sunday after Trinity

Jun 14, 2020, 07:30 AM

In the gospels, Jesus gathers the disciples around him, and then sends them out to share his mission in the world. His mission is our mission, yet we do not possess it. Rather it can become the narrative which gives shape to our lives.
